textarea.my: Browser-Based Text Editor with URL Storage

textarea.my: a JavaScript text editor that runs entirely in your browser and stores content in the URL hash.

Key features:

  • Uses deflate compression to fit content in URLs
  • Debounced auto-save every 500ms
  • LocalStorage backup for persistence
  • Zero server dependencies
  • Works offline and on mobile

Perfect for shareable notes, quick documentation, or prototyping text features before building backend APIs.
